♦Section 4 o f the Federal R eserve A c t, as am ended, reads in part as fo llo w s:

“

. . . That whenever any two or more member banks within the same Federal reserve district are affiliated with

the same holding company affiliate, participation by such member banks in any such nomination or election shall be
confined to one o f such banks, which may be designated for the purpose by such holding company affiliate.”
A cco rd in gly , banks in Group 2 affected by the fore g oin g provision o f the law are requested to take prom pt
action to have the appropriate holding com pany affiliate designate, if it has n ot already designated, one o f its affili­
ated banks to participate in this nom ination and election.




for class B director.** The nominations should be made by resolution o f the boards o f directors
of the nominating banks and certified copies o f such resolutions should be sent to me so as to
reach me on or before October 30,1950. The enclosed printed forms show the appropriate forms
o f resolution and on e c o p y o f each fo r m should be used in sending certified copies o f the resolu­
tions to me.
On November 1,1950, copies of the list of candidates (indicating by whom nominated) and
preferential ballots will be mailed so that, in the normal course o f the mails, they will be
received by all banks in Group 2 on November 2, 1950. The law provides that the ballot shall
be cast within 15 days after receipt o f this list. The polls will open on November 2, 1950, and
will close at 12 o ’clock noon on Friday, November 17, 1950. Upon the closing o f the polls
the ballot box will be opened in the board room of this Bank, the votes counted and checked
by tellers, and results o f the election announced. The candidates will be invited to be present
or represented on that occasion.
In order to be counted as valid, the ballot must be executed by an officer authorized to
cast the vote and must be received by me at or before the time thus fixed fo r the closing of
the polls (i.e., at or before 12 o ’clock noon on Friday, November 17, 1950). The list on
the following pages shows the officers heretofore designated fo r this purpose by the respective
banks in Group 2.
The banks in Groups 1 and 3 ivill not participate in this election, and this circular is sent
to them without form s fo r their information only.
R obert

T.

S te v e n s,

Chairman o f the Board.

♦♦Section 4 o f the F ederal R eserve A c t, as am ended, reads in part as fo llo w s:
“ Class A shall consist o f three members, who shall be chosen by and be representative o f the stock holding banks.
. . . N o officer or director o f a member bank shall be eligible to serve as a class A director unless nominated and
elected by banks which are members of the same group as the member bank o f which he is an officer or director.
“ A n y person who is an officer or director of more than one member bank shall not be eligible fo r nomination as a
class A director except by banks in the same group as the bank having the largest aggregate resources o f any o f those
o f which such person is an officer or director.”
“ Class B shall consist o f three members, who at the time of their election shall be actively engaged in their
district in commerce, agriculture or some other industrial pursuit. . . .
director, or employee o f any bank.”

N o director o f class B shall be an officer,

“ N o Senator or Representative in CoDgress shall be a member o f the Board o f Governors o f the Federal Reserve
System or an officer or a director o f a Federal reserve b a n k .”
I n a resolution adopted D ecem b er 23, 1915, the B oard o f G overnors o f the F edera l R eserve S y ste m expressed
the opinion “ that persons holding political or public office in the service o f the U n ited States, or o f any State,
territory, cou n ty, district, political subdivision, or m unicipality thereof, o r actin g as m e m b e rs o f political party
co m m ittees, can not consistently w ith the spirit and underlying principles o f the F edera l R eserve A c t , serve as
directors o r officers o f F ederal R eserve B an ks.” O n D ecem b er 2 8, 1915, the B oard o f G o vern o rs o f the Federal
R eserve S y ste m resolved that “ national bank exam iners shall not hereafter b e elected ♦ ♦ ♦ to directorships in
F edera l R eserve B a n k s.”

U n d e r date o f July 2, 1925, the B oard o f G overnors o f the F ederal R eserve S yste m

advised it had “ reached the conclusion that a person w h ose sole occupation is that o f officer o f an insurance co m ­
p an y is n ot eligible fo r election as a class B director o f a F ederal R eserve B an k,” and on O c to b e r 18, 1939, the
B oard advised “ that a person w hose sole occupation is that o f president o f a F ederal savin gs and loan association
and w h o has been serv in g as a class A director is n o t n ow eligible for election and service as a class B director.”
